THE GREAT CONSPIRACY.
Smith Protests, if You Please.
The Referees Powers.

There was nothing new i'll the Kelly
case yesterday, except the denial by j.
J. Smith. once license inspector, of the
statement made by Henry Barrett.
Smith grows indignant at the assertion
that he received money from a blind
pig. and of course he is right. But it is
a little singular that those papers which
made so much of Barrett'S testimony, as
far as it related to Kelly, Immediately
rejected as untrue all that bore upon
Smith. If one was true, the other must
be, and what are the great cOnSpira-
tors going TO do about it?
LAS far as it has gOne,' said an attOr-
ney yesterday, 1.-The case has developed
nothing in the world to show how a
Judgment could be satisfied. Of course
that is not what is wanted. The idea is
to make campaign matter and any one
but simpletOn can see it. The district
court will say the evidence was I'M
prop I. | would like to correct very
popular error in this connection. PeO-
ple seem to think that Referee Hall is a
court and can rule out question, which
is a mistake. All he can do is
to note the objections and report them
to court However, l did note, with
a smile that he found the testimony was
becoming irrelevant when it began to
show up the PillSbury administration" :"

Frame of Hon. Mr.. Fletcher.
While the machinery for providing
the bridges at Franklin avenue and
Lake street is quietly at work, the
embers of the fire occasionally flare up
and show the feeling is not dead. Still
it is matter of surprise that that aStute
old statesman, Hon. Loren Fletcher,
should rise up and bitterly attack the
bridges. From political point of view
1t was a very unWiSe proceeding to
create enemies without making friends.
Therefore it was matter of surprise
when. in the South Minneapolis News,
Mr. Fletcher cauStically criticises the
building of the bridges. Another thing.
He is quoted as saying: Anything
which is of advantage to st. Paul ought
20 be avoided by Minneapolis people. "
For a candidate for the favor of st. Paul
Is well as Minneapolis, this was very
rash admission.
Hon. Aleck Millar, of Franklin ave-
nue., was one of the warmeSt advocates
of the bridge scheme, and was CONSIDER
ably taken aback when he heard OF the
criticism from this source. He told how
he was elected to the legislature on this
bridge issue. which the people of his
section regard as the apple OF their eye,
and concluded:
Il am truly surprised at Mr.. Fletcher,
viewing him as a candidate, and not so
surprised. viewing him as a property
holder. His land is up along Sixth
avenue north, and he is opposed to
south town bridges. All right, let him
GOO He is a candidate, whatever he
may say. but he will find about election
time that his majority along Sixth ave
nue. north will be swamped in the vote
along Franklin avenue"

will be ready for the press in few
days. The catalogue of the gallery of
sculpture is being prepared by Mr..

The Sell Stove Works, of Chicago,
have withdrawn their application for
space in the Exposition building, leav-
ing vacant a very valuable space, which
can be had if the proper display will be
placed in it.
II. H. Hesket, late of Columbus, O.,
and pronounced by Remenenyi the
greatest violin maker since the days Of
the old Italians, will make a splendid
display of old viOlinS which will plOb-
ably be the most complete in America.
Doors will be closed on and after Mon
day to all visitors except those who have
exhibits. One of the features of the ex-
hibitiOn will be GOuld'S diOrama. The
diorama is not exactly panorama, for
aside from the panoramic background
it will have figures moving about in the
landscape. 1t will represent ten differ
ent scenes and incidents of American
history. The foundations are now COM

chinery, all of which will be in its place

How Shippers ana Buyers Are Be

How Shippers ana Buyers Are Be
ing Treated---A Few Illustra-
tiOns.
Some of the inconvenience and hard
ships suffered by elevators and shippers
because OF the disposition of the rail
roads to eXtort and discriminate would
surprise most people, who seem to look
upon kicking against the railroads as a
matter of course. For instance, the
Manitoba road at Minneapolis refuses
to let cars 90 off its tracks to elevators on
other roads. If Minneapolis buyer hap
pens to have an elevator on another
railroad he is forced to have his wheat
delivered at the Union elevator from
the Manitoba, and must then procure
other cars to transfer to his elevator.
This practice compelS the buyer to pay
three shipping charges of g cent per
bushel each time. The excuse offered
by the Manitoba is that it loses cars, and
the railroad takes advantage of the fail
ure of the law compelling the delivery
of wheat to connecting roads to eXplic-
itly state that cars must be transferred.
G. G. WolcOtt Il Co.. of Minneapolis,
have recently built elevators at New
Richmond. Waterville and WaSeca, and
the Minneapolis d st. Louis has re-
fused to make connections. The pur
pose of this is quite transparent. Last
wear DunWOOdy 4 COrSer had control Of
the elevators at these points, and paid
the farmers 90 cents for wheat when
the price was IS cents at Minneapolis.
This year the farmers will boycott the
Minneapolis d st. Louis, and hauling
to Waseca, will ship over the Chicago u
Northwestern.
The Manitoba has refused to put in
side tracks to elevators built along its
line unless they are of 10000 bushels
capacity When once built, it is re-
quired that they be filled before cars are
furnished. This would cost the farm
erS say so, 200, and the difficulty of rails
ing that amount can be easily seen.
The citizens of Graceville and Fair
mont are asking the railroad and ware
house commission at st. Paul to compel
the putting i'll of Us at these points, SO
that grain can be shipped to Mime
apOlis and Duluth via the Manitoba. as
the Milwaukee charges rate of l7119
cents, while the Manitoba charges Is
cents.
Some shortage in weight at Mime
apoliS can be accounted for perhaps by
the fact that men have been seen in
broad daylight to shovel wheat out of
cars. bag. and carry it off.

The Majors Recommendation.

The last number of the Mississippi
Valley Lumberman discusses, with con-
siderable feeling, the recommendation
of Mai. Allen that the government take
possession of the logging dams and pro-
hibit the sluicing of logs until the 1st of
August. If these recommendations
should he carriedou they would very
naturally affect the interests of North
western lumbermen. At least One-third
of the logs are now cut above the dams,
and if it was not permitted
to sIuice them until August, the proba-
bilityis that these logs, which are cut in
the winter, could not be sawed until
spring, and the effect would be to tie up
a million of capital for a year anda
half. This recommendation processes
to be made in the interest of navigation,
but seeing that there are only twenty
packets that would be benefited, and at
least ninety which are dependent upon
the lumber that would be injured, there
is not much danger that the recon-
mendatiOn will be carried out.
